For any that were threatened or had their family threatened I would guess that a “small sense of safety” might not cut it. I think they’ll need more solid assurances.
For small-time players who thought this was a fun scam for power, they’d better realize that keeping mum and remaining on the marxist train isn’t going to be just a train wreck for them, but a ticket to a world of pain when treason/sedition charges get leveled against them.
Too many in this latter category have a hard time accepting any personal responsibility for their own words and actions - partly why they embraced the leftism in the first place. Either they grow up quickly and wrap their half-wit little minds around reality or they’ll end up suffering the consequences.
To your point, OP, I don’t think there’s a set tipping point for everyone though I think once we see some true punishment being doled out to some of the corrupt major players, that will go a long way to convincing people that it’s safe enough to speak up. Just mho.
